Duck Pond

Sunday 30th December 2012

A walk around the top end of St Mary's on the roads took us past Trenoweth & the very full duck pond. The water running off the land and straight into the pond. I should think there's a waterfall at the end of the stream at Watermill at the moment from the pond's overflow.

Bartholomew's Ledge Breaking Seas

Sunday 30th December 2012

The seas were still breaking on Bartholomew's Ledge today. The wind is still fresh and it made holding my phone still enough to take a photo pretty challenging!

Blustery Garrison

Thursday 27th December 2012

A late lunchtime walk around the Garrison. Blustery with dramatic seas and sky. I had to zoom in on the sea breaking on Bartholomew's Ledge so it's a bit blurred

Sundown Christmas Day on Scilly 2012

The sun has moved on for the day now. Here's the Strand late afternoon as the sun dips over the sea's horizon. After an enjoyable family day it reinforces the importance of family and all getting together. I hope you all have enjoyed your day out there, I know I have. And we spare some time to remember friends, family & guests who are sadly no longer with us. All the best, Daniel.

Christmas Day 2012

The morning was quite warm although breezy. As the afternoon has gone on its got cooler and windier. Still; a lovely day and Christmas celebrations!
Merry Christmas to all!!

Christmas Eve on Scilly 2012

The weather has been kind for people travelling on Christmas Eve after bad weather cancelling flights on Saturday. 175 people being flown by Skybus from Newquay. So hopefully everyone should be where they need to be for Christmas Day tomorrow.

Porthmellon

I managed to escape from the hotel in the afternoon to visit building supplies down Porthmellon and so took this overcast shot across the beach towards Newford Island

Sunrise Over Peninnis

Tuesday 18th December 2012

The morning's sunrise across Porthcressa and Peninnis was stunning. This photo was taken by Josh Birch who has kindly let me use it for my blog :)

Saturday Afternoon Sundown

Saturday 8th December 2012

A walk around Parting Carn, Old Town & back down Buzza in time to catch the last light as the sun had departed for the day behind St Agnes

St Agnes & Gugh

Saturday 8th December 2012

Not having had a chance all week to get out photo taking, I have permission from John Peacock of St Agnes Boating (http://www.stagnesboating.co.uk/) to post a photograph he has taken this morning of the bar between St Agnes & Gugh. A lovely picture, and good to see a different view from St Mary's pictures for a change.
